Hello,

i have found some weird messages in my syslog since i setup openldap and switched my users from local passwd/shadow to openldap.

I have two notebooks using sssd and the openldap server is configured with pam_ldap/nss_ldap authentication. I didn't have any problems, but i'm unsure why those message are logged and so i decided to ask this on the list.

Those are the messages in question:

Mar 22 20:10:01 foobarsrv1 slapd[16923]: connection_input: conn=12652 deferring operation: binding

Mar 22 15:36:33 foobarsrv1 slapd[16923]: connection_read(29): no connection! Mar 22 15:37:36 foobarsrv1 slapd[16923]: conn=10375 op=6 ABANDON msg=6

Mar 15 09:00:59 foobarsrv1 slapd[28731]: connection_input: conn=16081 deferring operation: too many executing

Mar 12 18:33:54 foobarsrv1 slapd[699]: slap_global_control: unrecognized control: 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.8.5.1

I have tried to find a solution or reason for this since two weeks or so, but i couldn't find the answer/solution. Regarding the "deferring operation: binding" message i'm just concerned, because their is absolutely no load on the system and i'm not sure what would happen if i had more than 3 clients (including the server) which use ldap. I already tried to match those messages with other things going on on the system, but i could get any match. Currently i get the "deferring operation: binding" anything between 2 and 10 times a day.

I know that this may be more than one issue, but i hope that you are willing to help me solve this.

This is my slapd.conf:

The openldap server is an up to date Gentoo system.

If you need more informations just let me know.

Kind regards,
